Jade Rose Designs

A couple months ago I did a photo shoot for local designer Jade Rose Designs. Here are some of the shots! If you like her stuff, check out her website or etsy.

Opal Creek

Recently this winter I ventured on a hike in the beautiful Oregon woods with two photographers, one of whom is David Keller, a fellow marketing student (oh, did I tell you I added marketing as a 2nd major?) and aspiring filmmaker. He was shooting film and the above portrait is from that day. (Oh! It's the shirt again! Bonus points to anyone who can count all the times this shirt appears in my blog...)

I had my digital camera with me and took some shots of the landscape. I'm pretty excited about them, they will make great studies for landscape paintings later. Don't be fooled... I can photograph nature alright but couldn't take a good portrait if my life depended on it!

AnOther Magazine (Scanned Images)

A while ago I did a photo shoot/story for AnOther Magazine. I posted a blog HERE at the time. It's taken me ages, but I finally got around to getting the pages from the magazine scanned. For the shoot, we traveled all around the outskirts of Portland, Oregon from abandoned buildings, beaches, and space ships to magic overgrown gardens. It was nice to be roughed up, dirty, and punk rock for this shoot vs. normal shoots where every hair has to be in the right place. Here are a few pages from the spread that I am in:

By the way... 
Dear AnOther Magazine, if you read this: The only copy of the magazine I have is one my mom found in a magazine shop and bought. I would love it if you could send me a copy, and I know the other girls in the shoot would like a copy as well. Email me at emilygalash at yahoo dot com for a mailing address. Thanks!! -Emily

Parker Fitzgerald Vintage Photo Shoot Part 2

A while back I posted some photos from a photo shoot I did with photographer Parker Fitzgerald. Here are some more photos from that same shoot. Again, I cannot describe how pleased I am with these photos. Parker has incredible skill.

AnOther Magazine Photo Spread

Check out THIS LINK to AnOther Magazine's online version of the punk rock themed spread I and 3 other awesome gals are in. My mother bought the magazine last week here in Portland, I'll have to get scans of the pages so I can post jpegs. But the link works just dandy! Go click it! EDIT: I have scanned images! Go to my NEW POST to check them out!

Photoshoot with Parker Fitzgerald

A few weeks ago photographer Parker Fitzgerald and make up artist Caprice Hammon and I headed out to the beautiful gorge to shoot entirely with film and Polaroid using multiple vintage cameras. Here are the results. I must say, I am extremely impressed and Parker is a superb photographer with a clear vision and knows how to get just what he's looking for.

AnOther Magazine

The London-based magazine AnOther Magazine just published it's latest that includes a shoot I did a few months back! In a few weeks the magazine will be on shelves here in the US, but until then, you can see a preview of the content online at THIS LINK!

Photoshoot with Jeff Shanes

A few weeks ago I shot with Portland Photographer Jeff Shanes. His photos are always stunning! Here are a few shots from that day.

Timbers Update!

The Portland Timbers billboards, of which I am on a few are great. I am enjoying them, and I love how serious Timbers fans are. I have fierce local pride and I feel that the Timbers represent the citizens of this city better than any other team out there, so count me a fan!

I have also learned a lot about my family's connection with the Timbers from 25+ years ago. My mom has pictures of her and all of the Timbers team from a long time ago. I guess she knew them pretty well. I only learned this after doing the photo shoot when it came up in conversation over the winter holidays.

Also, I have been told that another one of the billboards I am on is up on Canyon Rd. on the way to Beverton. Can anyone find this? I want a picture! Send it to emilygalash AT yahoo DOT com

Lastly, these huge billboards have gotten some negative press as well. Aparantly they are TOO BIG! Pshhhhh I say..... But it is true, here is the news clip on local KGW channel 8 covering the story.

Candid by McIsaac

My friend and lovely photographer posted this photo of me on her photography blog. It was taken on a rainy winter's day at a Portland coffee shop where we were meeting. I look forward to shooting something with her in the future. Please stop by her site and take a look at her work!

Currently my music related art collection is on display at North End Gallery in St. Johns/Portland at 8926 N. Lombard. Check it out! Here are some photos of the gallery/music venue space as well as my art: Flickr

Slippage (continued)

Everyone says the Fall and Winter film and print markets here in Portland are the "Slow" times. But I am busy filming, auditioning, and booking job after job. Recently, all of the above happened on in one day.

I'll share what jobs I've booked/shot after the end product comes out. It's better when I can SHOW you.

We wrapped up filming on Slippage for the year (we resume in January 2011). We ended on a very cold and rainy night in the middle of a spooky forest.

Here are a few select photos from the last 2 weeks of filming (More can be found on the Slippage Facebook page):

And a screenshot of me looking upset about something (probably the main character, haha):
